Bijnor (Uttar Pradesh): Who knew that coming late for one’s own wedding would cost a man his bride? A groom and his baraat in Uttar Pradesh’s Bijnor were locked up and thrashed by the bride’s family. According to a report in The Times of India, the groom and his baraat also alleged that the bride’s family also ‘snatched’ their valuables. On the other hand, the bride refused to go with the groom and instead married the local youth.

According to the police, the couple had married in a mass wedding programme six weeks ago after which the bride did not go to the in-laws’ house as they wanted to tie the knot in a ceremony with 'proper' wedding rituals.
